Summer ‘08 at UK
I’ve been waiting too long for my Scotland snaps and it’s high time I get back to blogging. So, here’s a short post on the best trip I’ve ever had. It lasted just 9 days but I would probably need a blog post for each day!
Me and Sandeep (my bro, sponsor, chauffeur :P) first visited the London eye to get a beautiful view of London and hopped on to the big bus. We utilized the full validity of the 24 hour ticket to go through both the routes. Take my word, it’s the best way to tour London. Next up, we went to Scotland to visit Glasgow, Edinburgh. The castles and finally the stay in a caravan at Inverness was just spectacular.
We spent the weekend at our cousin’s place playing my Wii (reluctantly gifted my brother) with the Kids and our brother in law. The sunday started off with a disappointing Asia Cup final to be quickly forgotten with the excisting Formula1 race and the icing on the cake being the best Wimbledon final. My only regret was not being able to watch the race or the tennis live being so close to both venues.
Just before leaving, we did a Lords tour which is a dream-come-true for Cricket lovers. We also met some English cricketers and I had a urge to scream Yuvraj when I saw Stuart Broad practising but I resisted it 
The last attraction that could fit into my itinerary was Madame Tussauds. I was expecting it be like an art gallery but it turned out to be a rocking party albeit with wax people 
I’ve uploaded some moments of my London trip to flickr:
It’s tough to describe what I liked best, the food at Bella Italia, the cars (check out the Lambo in the set below), the chilly weather (chilly for me, hot for Londoners), people, the architecture. So, I decided to go for my brother without whom this unforgettable trip would have never happened! Oh, he also got his spanking new BMW (I missed it by a week!).
